As someone based in Canggu, I'm constantly hopping between cafes for work, brunch, or just a good cup of coffee. Here's my honest roundup of the spots I keep coming back to — from serious specialty coffee to easy laptop-friendly hangouts. No sponsors...
Map
My go-to when I want to actually taste different coffee, not just drink it. Their tasting menu is a fun way to spend a slow morning.
Blacklist Coffee Roasters
Honestly one of my favorite places in all of Canggu. Their milk coffee is unmatched — I always end up ordering a second cup.
Shady Shack
Love the story behind this place, the owner started roasting his own beans at home before opening this. You can taste the passion in every cup.
Hungry Bird Coffee Roaster
My matcha fix when I'm craving something different from coffee. Their matcha is imported straight from Uji, Japan, and it genuinely tastes like it.
Matcha Cafe Bali
My early morning spot — opens at 6am and it's magical being in Pererenan before the rest of Canggu wakes up. Simple menu, solid coffee.
BGS Bali Canggu - Coffee Bar & Surf Shop
This place feels like stepping into a treehouse. I come here when I want a slower, prettier setting to enjoy my coffee.
WOODS PERERENAN
Quick, casual, and the espresso drinks are consistently good. My pick when I need caffeine fast but still want quality.
Crate Cafe
My work-from-cafe spot — good wifi and their Bulletproof Coffee is a nice change from my usual order.
nüde cafe Berawa
Right in the middle of Canggu's busiest lifestyle strip, great for people-watching while sipping something good.
MIEL SPECIALTY COFFEE CANGGU | CO-WORKING
A Canggu classic. Great coffee by day, great energy by night if you're sticking around for dinner and music.
Revolver Canggu
Where I work! Not just a gym — the cafe here does genuinely great healthy food, plus there's a proper recovery area with sauna, cold plunge, and pool. My go-to for post-workout meals.
Body Factory Bali
Rustic, chill vibe with really good fresh juices — shakshuka and the folded egg bun are both worth ordering.
Gigi Susu
My go-to for a proper dinner out — service is next-level and the food never misses. Great for celebrations.
Beach Boy Canggu
The Bali beach bar classic. Great for sunset drinks that turn into a whole night out if you let it.
Old Man's
My favorite build-your-own-breakfast spot — chill vibe, great for a slow weekend brunch with friends.
